Pursuing Her

Chapter 578

When the others heard what the two said, they were rendered speechless.

That's true. It makes sense for a girl like Sophie to have plenty of admirers. Despite her frosty demeanor, her goddess-like looks will draw countless men toward her like a siren song.

“Sophie, actually, Simon isn't that irritating after all.” Sometimes, we really can't judge a book by its cover.

“Why? Do you like him?”

Sandra shook her head.

They didn't share the same social circle even though she found him to be decent. Having been acquainted with him for a long time, she would have already fallen for him back then if it was meant to happen.

As Simon was in the same anatomy class with them, he would approach Sandra for help whenever he had any questions.

Having been learning by Sophie's side for a while, Sandra managed to answer all of them comprehensively, earning a thumbs up from him.

“Sandra, I didn't think much of you previously, but you seemed to have outdone yourself these days.”

He was truly impressed by the change he saw in her.

Embarrassed by his compliments, Sandra said, “Actually, Sophie's the smart one. Whenever I faced any problems, she would always help me solve them with some quick guidance.” Sophie is a wonderful teacher.

“I hope I can be as lucky as you are.” Simon continued with his work, while Sophie was called by the professor to discuss a topic about anatomy again.

“You will be. Sophie may look cold on the outside, but she'll definitely answer any questions you have.” © NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

Sandra felt strongly about the matter.

Meanwhile, Greta—with her attention all focused on Simon—kept making mistakes, eliciting a frown from the professor.

In the medical field, one holds the lives of others in one's hands. With her current attitude, she will definitely not be responsible for her patients once she graduates and works in a hospital.

“Greta, if you really have no interest in learning, you can still quit or switch to a different course,” the professor asserted in a stern tone.

Having been criticized, Greta turned red in embarrassment. She was an egoistic person.

“I'm sorry, Professor,” Greta said awkwardly. Cognizant of the professor's temper, she knew disobeying him would only make her feel more embarrassed.

“This is the dissecting room, not a place for you to ogle at boys. If that's what you're looking for, please

go somewhere else.” She looks as if she's swooning over boys all day. How can a girl like her be qualified to be a doctor?

Greta snuck a glance at Sophie. She bit her lip in exasperation when she noticed the latter didn't even spare her a glance.

It wasn't easy for me to get into medical school. There's no way I'm giving up, especially now.

“I'm sorry, Professor. I promise this will never happen again.” Greta had no choice but to apologize.

The professor snorted in response.

“All of you, listen up. I require everyone to be serious about their work in my class. Anyone who isn't is welcome to leave so that you don't waste everyone else's time!” He resented Greta's attitude very much.

Why did the university even accept a girl like that?

After the professor's tirade, the other students didn't dare make a sound and concentrated on the work in their hands.

Simon paid no attention to Greta. When he had a question Sandra couldn't answer, he was left with no option but to refer it to Sophie.

Just as expected, Sophie explained it to him in simple terms, eliciting a look of admiration from him.

“Goddess, you're amazing!” Simon exclaimed in awe.

Sandra pulled him aside.

“All right now, don't push it. Otherwise, you'll make others antagonize Sophie.” Can't you see how Greta's eyes are spitting fire already?

“Ignore her. She's just jealous of my goddess!” Sophie was now his goddess.

After class, the professor called out to Sophie.

“Sophie, I'm going to publish a thesis soon. Since you have been a big help to me, I'll be adding your name to it.”

The paper would be published in the medical industry top journal.

With Sophie's name appearing on it, securing a job in the future would be a walk in the park.

The professor had given the honor, coveted by many others, to Sophie, which proved how much he liked her.

“Professor, I don't need it. My own paper is about to be published too. You should reserve it for someone who needs it more.”

In response to Sophie's words, Sandra grabbed her hand and said excitedly, “Sophie, do you know how prestigious that medical journal is? This isn't just an ordinary thesis too!”

When she saw how thrilled Sandra looked, Sophie replied flatly, “I really don't need it. Professor, why

don't you add Sandra's name to it?”

“Are you sure you don't need it?” Her reaction wasn't what the professor expected. He had assumed she would be delighted.

“I figured my thesis would appear in the same edition, so I don't need my name added to yours.”

“What?”

Even though the professor was aware of Sophie's brilliance, he was surprised that she—despite being a freshman—could have a thesis published in the most prestigious medical journal in the world.

“I've received a confirmation that my thesis will be included in the upcoming issue,” Sophie repeated.

The professor, Sandra, and Simon were all at a loss for words.

They were shocked by how far ahead Sophie was.

If they were to compare themselves to her, they would end up wondering if they were nothing but retards.

“All right, then. I'm sorry to have bothered you.” The professor didn't know what else to say.

Indeed, Sophie is a genius. One who has no peer.

Even after the professor was gone, Simon and Sandra still hadn't snapped out of their shock.

Sophie couldn't help but furrow her brows at the sight of both of them gaping.

“What's wrong? Do you not believe what I just said?”

Sandra shook her head at once.

“Of course not! Even if you tell us you're from a different planet right now, we have no reason to doubt you!” Her capabilities are so amazing that it's hard to believe. And yet, it does exist in real life.

Simon nodded without hesitation.

“I agree!”

“You guys...” Forget it. I should keep a low profile going forward before I mess with their minds any further.

Upon leaving the academic building, they were greeted by the sight of Greta charging at them with a bottle in hand. From the look on her face, it was clear that her intentions were malicious.

“Sophie, stop where you are!” That face of hers is what she uses to seduce other men, and I'm going to destroy it today!

“Oh, no! She's holding concentrated sulfuric acid in her hands!” Sandra's expression drastically changed. Greta has gone mad!

Sophie cocked an eyebrow. Does that lunatic have a death wish?
